Jean Piaget
- pioneering Swiss philosopher
and psychologist
- his insight opened a
window into the inner
workings of the mind
- developed several new fields of science:
developmental psychology, cognitive
theory and genetic epistemology
- child prodigy
- he became interested in psychoanalysis
- he suspected that the key to
human knowledge might be
discovered by observing how the
child's mind develops
- the core of Piaget is his belief that
looking carefully at how knowledge
develops in children will clarify the
nature of knowledge in general
